Too too small
Follow the other reviews and order 2 sizes up! Unfortunately I only went one size up and it didn't fit.
Speckle Print Asymmetric Ruffle Dress

Bigger than the other color
I first ordered the grass green slip dress in my normal size. It fit like a glove and the girls were sitting nicely and well supported by the green dress. This dress in coral is the same style but has slight differences. First it runs large. Second the straps are adjustable but it's hard to do so. So next time I order I will make sure to go one size down.

Size WAY DOWN
I rented this from the store. I had a hard time finding the size so I just picked one that looked right. I thought It was really interesting when I tried it on. It wasn't until I got home that I saw it was a medium (I wear a 16). I think I would not have liked it if I had gotten my actual size. I got compliments on the dress all day. It's simple but there is something about it that makes it stand out.

Annoying zipper
I kept fiddling with this shirt because of the side zipper. I'm not even sure why there is one because the top is stretchy enough you can put it over your head. The zipper kept bunching and I kept adjusting. It was so annoying in fact I almost went home to change tops.

Silk PJ
I rented this because it looked fun. I felt like I was walking outside with a robe on though. I left it open.

Those darn buttons
The dress was cute. I did have to keep pulling it down because the hips were a little snug (I'm hippy). The thing that annoyed me though was the buttons. They kept coming undone and flashed my bra. I had to re-button at least 5 times during the day.
London Calling Mini Dress

Hot little number
I think I like A.L.C dresses. This simple t-shirt dress is anything but simple. The fabric is soft and stretchy. The split is daring. I take risks with my clothing so the split was no problem for my 6' self, but I can see how some might feel it is 'too high'. I would have bought it had it been a bit cheaper and considered keeping it the whole summer, but I know I'll definitely rent it again.
Minetta Dress

Eye catching
This dress is just amazing. The fit is body con that hugs comfortably and the back adds loads of sexiness. I wore it w/o a bra although the strap across the back makes wearing one easy. Can't wait to rent it again.

Looked like a curvy goddess
I wore this for my first wedding dress fitting. I felt like Beyoncé. It's sexy without having everything hanging out. My fiancé loved it so much he wanted me to wear it for our engagement party later in the day. The slip underneath is short but that's what adds to the sexiness. I went braless with this dress
